President Donald Trump<\/a> said Friday that anyone who burns the American flag “will be immediately arrested” and face a one-year prison term, citing his Aug. 25 executive order on flag desecration.<\/p>\n

“To ICE, Border Patrol, Law Enforcement, and all U.S. Military: As per my August 25, 2025 Executive Order, please be advised that, from this point forward, anybody burning the American Flag will be subject to one year in prison,” Trump posted on Truth Social<\/a> Friday evening.<\/p>\n

“You will be immediately arrested. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”<\/p>\n

The executive order<\/a> itself stopped short of creating new penalties, directing the Justice Department to prioritize cases under existing laws “to the maximum extent permitted by the Constitution.”<\/p>\n

Supreme Court rulings in Texas v. Johnson<\/i> (1989) and United States v. Eichman<\/i> (1990) held that flag burning is protected speech<\/a>. Trump\u2019s statement goes further, setting up potential legal battles if arrests are pursued.<\/p>\n

Trump has long pushed to punish flag desecration, and the latest post sharpens his law-and-order message<\/a> as the government shutdown continues.<\/p>\n

“President Trump will not allow the American Flag \u2013 a special symbol of our country\u2019s greatness \u2013 to be used as a tool to incite violence and riots that jeopardize the safety of everyday Americans,” White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson told Fox News Digital. “President Trump will always protect the First Amendment, while simultaneously implementing commonsense, tough-on-crime policies to prevent violence and chaos.”<\/p>\n
